The beautiful woman in the quick transmigration novel has been targeted by the male lead again.

Chang Ning didn't know why she sent him the message, nor did she know what the result would be; it might just be ignored as spam.

To my surprise, the other end replied very quickly: "Didn't I tell you to go somewhere else?"

A few seconds later, he sent another message: "Are you okay?"

Chang Ning pursed her lips. What did he mean by that? Did he want something to happen to her?

She replied, "It's okay, I don't have any money."

That's why we didn't move.

There seemed to be silence on the other end, before a question was asked after a while: "Didn't we give you 300,000?"

Chang Ning was immediately touched on a sensitive nerve again, and regretted sending him the message. She replied, "It got robbed."

Then I ignored him.

Meanwhile, in Gu Yanzhou's office, the lights were still on, and his secretary, Du Lin, was giving a report when she suddenly noticed her boss starting to drift off. "Sir?"

"Hold on."

After saying that, he made a communication call with a very simple message: "Where are you now?"

"fine?"

"be careful."

Then, after operating the computer a few times, he put it down and said to him, "Continue."

Secretary: "Oh, it's confirmed that what happened last night was premeditated, and the target has been identified."

I've never seen my husband get distracted while working.

Chang Ning stared blankly at the newly received 30 yuan transfer for a long time before she realized what it meant. This person truly deserves to be a representative of the common people!

She will definitely vote for him during the election!

Changning is fine again. I found a hotel right away. I have to go to work tomorrow.

She slept until nine o'clock the next day. When she got to the company, her secretary came to her and said that there was an industry exchange meeting that night and two people were needed to attend.

The secretary said she had a generation gap with those older women and asked Chang Ning if she wanted to go. If she did, it would just be the two of them.

"I heard that many industry leaders and high-ranking government officials will be coming."

Chang Ning asked, "Why isn't the boss going?"

These kinds of events are usually attended by the boss and his secretary, right?

"Who knows? Maybe they're just too rich!"

He's called the boss, but I've hardly ever seen him at the company. He pays pretty high salaries, it's like he's doing charity work!

Chang Ning's spirits, which had just been dampened, began to stir again. In this kind of setting, the people who came and went were all rich and powerful, and he might just be able to catch a big fish!

The meeting was held nearby, and the government building was just a little closer to the center.

When I arrived, I found that it wasn't a very formal business event, but more like a networking dinner. Besides the bosses of major companies in the industry, there were a few government officials who had appeared in the news, as well as staff members wearing badges from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. They must have been of very high rank, as if they had just come from the laboratory.

The secretary was busy having friendly talks with others and told Chang Ning not to be nervous and to just treat it as a trip.

Chang Ning immediately understood that the secretary must have noticed her predicament yesterday and brought her here to freeload.

Chang Ning decided to accept the invitation without further ado. Her skin was thick and thin, and at this moment it was thick. The banquet was a buffet, and the standards were very high. Chang Ning planned to eat her fill before socializing.

She was enjoying pine shrimp from the Cecivia star system when someone approached her. It was a very tall man, an interstellar being whose age was a mystery, and she couldn't tell how old he was.

The visitor introduced himself, and Chang Ning thought for a moment and realized that he was the owner of a company that ranked among the top three in the industry, and was quite wealthy.

Chang Ning was just a newbie in the industry with little experience. Before long, he was guided into a pleasant conversation. Just as the two were about to exchange contact information, he was suddenly interrupted: "Mr. Wu."

The voice sounded familiar. Chang Ning turned around and saw that it was Gu Yanzhou!

So he came today too!

He didn't look at her, as if he didn't recognize her at all. Chang Ning breathed a sigh of relief. She had just been planning to flirt with this Mr. Wu, and it would have been so embarrassing if someone she knew had found out.

Mr. Wu smiled and said, "So the Speaker is here too. What a pleasure to meet you!"

Gu Yanzhou was still wearing a suit. He was tall and had long legs. The difference was that he was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses today, which made him look more refined. However, his noble aura remained unchanged.

"You can address each other by name in private."

Gu Yanzhou said, "Minister Zuo from the Academy of Sciences just mentioned Mr. Wu; he must have something to discuss with you!"

Mr. Wu left after hearing this, leaving Chang Ning behind.

She felt a little embarrassed, glanced at Gu Yanzhou, and was about to leave when an arm stopped her: "Don't you recognize me?"

Chang Ning felt awkward. She had just received 600,000 yuan from him, so it wouldn't be right for her not to know him. She looked up at him and said, "Mr. Gu."

Gu Yanzhou hummed in agreement and then asked, "Do you know that Mr. Wu from earlier?"

Chang Ning was puzzled. "Why are you asking this?"

The girl in front of him was fidgeting with her fingers, looking uneasy. Gu Yanzhou softened his voice and said, "This person's conduct is not very good. It's best not to have contact with him unless absolutely necessary."

Chang Ning blushed instantly, feeling that her little scheme had been seen through, and became angry and embarrassed: "What's it to you!"

Gu Yanzhou remained silent, as if he had never dealt with such a situation before.

But it's not surprising. In the past forty years, he had met people who, whether on the same side or on different sides, whether they were witty or outspoken, all spoke with their own rules. He had almost never met someone who spoke entirely based on his own feelings.

He changed the subject, saying, "The murder case next door to you yesterday has been solved; it was a revenge killing."

"It's very unsafe there, you'd better find somewhere else right away."

Chang Ning said, "Oh, I'll change it when I have a holiday."

Gu Yanzhou frowned almost imperceptibly, just about to say something, when two more people arrived, a man and a woman. The woman was still wearing her laboratory uniform with the Academy of Sciences' insignia on it. She called out, "Yanzhou."

Gu Yanzhou nodded: "Dr. Lin, Mr. Lu."

Mr. Lu, with a nonchalant air, looked at Chang Ning and asked, "Who is this? Aren't you going to introduce him?"

Gu Yanzhou simply said, "An employee of ANL."

Mr. Lu scoffed upon hearing this, immediately losing interest: "I thought you were deliberately avoiding us."

Gu Yanzhou straightened his cufflinks: "What makes you say that?"

"Everyone knows this perfectly well, so why pretend to be confused?"

After saying this, the two left together.

Chang Ning watched their retreating figures and suddenly realized who that Dr. Lin was!

The First Imperial Academy of Technology has a bioengineering major that only admits those with awakened mental abilities.

Ten years ago, I heard that a very talented student entered the major, but it was later revealed that the student was just an ordinary person and had not awakened any spiritual power.

He was originally to be disciplined and expelled from school, but because he developed a drug that could temporarily relieve mania, he became famous and was exceptionally allowed to continue his studies, and later entered the First Academy of Sciences.

This story was widely circulated at the time. Chang Ning was still in middle school when she heard about it and exclaimed that it was truly a protagonist's life!

If I remember correctly, that person's surname was Lin.

She asked Gu Yanzhou, "Is that Dr. Lin...?"

Gu Yanzhou said, "Yes."

He seemed uninterested in that and instead asked, "Where are you staying tonight?"
